With famine imminent in Gaza, new analysis from Christian Aid shows the sky high prices people are paying for food. In Rafah onions are now 50 times their pre-war price, leafy vegetables have increased 25 times in price and sugar now costs around £17 per kilogram. #CeasefireNOW
On #InternationalWomensDay, we celebrate the achievements & empowerment of women worldwide. However, for women in #Gaza, this day carries a different weight.
The ongoing war has shattered lives and homes, leaving many without basic necessities. 💔
✊ We urge you to stand with us in advocating for the safety & human rights of women and everyone else in Gaza.
📣Let's call for a permanent #CeaseFireNow

🙏 This third Sunday in Lent, and as we move into a time celebrating women around the world, let's pray for the women who are living in the face of conflict and displacement.
🚨PCHR expresses its shock at the killing of our second colleague, Dana Yaghi, as Israel continues to commit genocide against Palestinians in #Gaza. Dana, lawyer at the Womens’ Rights Unit, was murdered on 22 February along 40 others, the majority of whom are from her family, by an Israeli airstrike on Yaghi family’s house in Deir Al- Balah. This tragic event comes two days after #Israeli warplanes killed our colleague Nour Abu Nour along seven members of her family, including her two-years-old daughter. Our hearts are saddened by the loss of Dana and Nour, and our thoughts and prayers are with their loved ones. May their beautiful souls rest in peace.

Today marks 2 years of war in Ukraine. Christian Aid has so far reached around 1 million people affected by the war with emergency aid incl food, shelter & cash. Speaking in Odessa our Ukraine country director Iryna Dobrohorska thanks all who have donated to make this possible. https://t.co/gzxIRtoAXw
Half of Gaza is on the brink of famine & 2.2 million are struggling to feed themselves. People are so desperate some are eating animal feed to survive. Food shortages are worst in northern Gaza as UN aid deliveries are blocked. Our partner PARC is the only lifeline for many.
A year since devastating earthquakes hit Turkey and Syria, your donations have helped over a million people. But the road to recovery is long. DEC charities are now helping people rebuild their lives and livelihoods.
🙏 Join us in prayer this first Sunday in Lent.
Let's be led by Jesus' example of humility, trust and faithfulness as we move into a season of fasting.
